Woodland Lake is a "L" shaped lake with lots of small coves and bays. It is the type of lake that I like because when you turn the corner there is more lake to see. It just isn't a circle lake that you go round and round.

Real Estate Investment Trusts (REITs) enable all investors to invest in large-scale, income-producing commercial real estate backed Mortgages which is both owned and managed by professional companies. REITs provide portfolio diversification and strong, reliable dividend income.

What is a REIT?

A REIT is a company that owns and operates income-producing commercial real estate of which the shares are traded on major stock exchanges. The income is generated from rents of apartment building, offices, shopping centers, hotels and other commercial real estate.

Why were REITs Created?

REITs were created by Congress in sixties so that all investors would be able to invest in income-producing real estate and large scale commercial properties in the same way they invest in other industries. The shareholders earn a pro-rata share of the economic benefits derived from the income produced by the ownership of commercial real estate.

Who Manages REITs?

REITs are managed by an executive management team that decides which properties to own and manage. A board of directors oversees the team's decisions and is responsible to the shareholders. REIT directors are well respected members of the real estate, business and professional communities.

Why Invest in REITs?

REITs are total return investments with high dividends and the potential for moderate, long-term appreciation. REITs are required to distribute at least 90% of their taxable income to shareholders each year; therefore, REITs are among the companies paying the highest dividends. The dividends are derived from rental income from tenants who occupy the properties; therefore, it is typically stable and predictable. REITs offer portfolio diversification which reduces risk, stable dividend income and high dividend yields.

How does one Invest in REITs?

Individuals may invest by purchasing shares through a securities dealer. One can hire a broker, investment advisor or financial planner to assist in analyzing their financial investment needs. Knowledgeable investors can contact a REIT directly to request a copy of their annual report, prospectus and other financial information. Less experienced investors can find information on financial websites or research REITs in local libraries.

Just like with other publicly traded securities, investors may buy common stock, preferred stock or debt securities. One may also diversify their portfolio by purchasing shares of REITs in mutual funds or exchange traded funds.
